Masters Of The Mainline - U.K Steam Train Review - 2016

STOP PRESS !! MAINLINE 2O18 Review Out Now !
• Marvels Of The Mainlin...
The mammoth operation of British mainline steam in 2016, will go down as an improvement on it's previous year which was probably one of the most turbulent years on the mainline. This year would see some big name locos return to the mainline scene, although loco availability would see still plague tour operators and the southern half of England, as many tours were being cancelled. With eyes still on West Coast Railways, who are treading carefully after their suspensions, the rail operator are now looking to be heading in the right direction, which is paramount as this video would not be possible without the successful running of their operation !
This year's compilation covers my favourite highlights throughout the year, which features 70 scenes involving 16 locomotives. This compilation features what I deem to be my best clips of the year and the scenes are edited to provide you constant action, while still providing a build up of anticipation. There is a brief on screen intro to each scene, though I'm happy to answer any questions you have !
I hope you enjoy the video.

I watch this, and even though I'm from the United States, I can't help but smile. I've always admired how the United Kingdom has preserved and showcased these beautiful living and breathing pieces of history so well. It makes me want to come over there and stay there just for the opportunity to volunteer to help out

[@MS46532]

well this one train you may hate.... pacers. Look it up

[@electrohalo8798]

MARIO SONIC/Bukunmi why did you mention it, WHY, ITS RATTLING CAN BE JEARD FROM MILES AWAY

[@OctoberChad]

Hello from the U.S. I enjoy how you have showcased not only the locomotives, but also your beautiful countryside. I have come to admire British steam in recent years. It combines an impressive amount of power fitted into a limited loading gauge with a beautiful form. Galatea is particularly handsome.

[@MarshSteamVideosTM]

Glad you enjoy it Chad, we're lucky to have such vast steam operations in the current climate.

[@josephpodohertysaleh4912]

As someone whom has spent my Annual holiday over the last 40+ years in UK visiting the preserved Railways. I thank you for this wonderful footage. Absolutely superb.🇬🇧☘️

[@MarshSteamVideosTM]

Our pleasure!

[@joshuaethan]

The footage of 44871 & 45407 on the Winter Cumbrian Mountain Express at Ribblesdale is breathtaking absolutely stunning cinema photography. Well done!!

[@mobilephil244]

All great but that footage of the double header at 14:30 odd is absolutely STUNNING - definitely requires volume turned up to infinity !

[@MarshSteamVideosTM]

Many thanks!

[@stuartthegrant]

Wow what a treat this film is. I watched it all full screen volume up and loved every moment of it. Thanks for filming and sharing all these great engines.

[@MarshSteamVideosTM]

Cheers Stuart, glad you enjoyed it and thanks for watching.

[@NickiesAdventureChannel]

It’s 3:28am I’m wide awake .... watching your video ..... absolutely fantastic, what wonderful shots

[@suesmith3744]

Hi Liam , I was born in 1961 so missed out on seeing these beauties thunder through the English countryside , I really can't explain my fascination with these beautiful and majestic engines but it has always been there , even as a small child when I can just about remember seeing them in the flesh as it were . The Flying Scotsman has bought me to tears more than once , she is so beautiful and majestic . The Queen of steam . Thank you so much for bringing these beauties back to life , your videos are second to none . All the best in 2017 to everyone at Marsh steam videos 🥂🍾🚂🚂

[@MarshSteamVideosTM]

Sue, thanks for lovely recollection, I can see why my videos make you reminisce. Thanks as always for the feedback, it's greatly appreciated.

[@hawkeye-vv4kb]

The scenic beauty at 24:3 is stunning. Can only dream how wonderful it will look during summer months.

[@MarshSteamVideosTM]

Very green ! The vast majority of railway photographers prefer the late autumn colours when visiting the higlands. While the scenery is stunning through the summer months you don't get as much steam on display.

[@davidrose552]

Excellent filming and very nostalgic. As a lad around the 1960 mark I remember seeing all those original L.M.S. engines on the N.W. Line, happy days. Thank You.

[@MarshSteamVideosTM]

Thanks David, glad you rekindle your childhood memories.

[@TRSPomerania]

Another spectacular video compilation filled with steam! It was really great to watch your work, enjoyed it very much. Cheers from Poland!

[@MarshSteamVideosTM]

Thanks again, I'm glad you enjoy my videos.

[@TheStephengthompson]

Bang on as ever Liam , hard to pick a standout from all the cracking footage but being a Shap lover the Royal Scot stands out for me and even the now retired Gordon Hodgson said 46100 was outstanding that day .

[@MarshSteamVideosTM]

Cheers Steve, 46100 was right up there for me and glad to have made the trip. A big shame about Gordon, a real loss !

[@chatty1chatty1NickD]

Excellent high quality video: great camera work, great editing. Thanks for posting. Nick.

[@MarshSteamVideosTM]

Thanks for the kind comment Nick.

[@petersingleton5545]

Thanks for sharing these videos, very good, especially the Lickey Incline shots at night. Keep up the good work and we might see each other one day, maybe on Shap.

[@swindoniangirl89]

[@gen3v8]

I`m chuffed. Thanks!

[@MarshSteamVideosTM]

Good to hear =)

[@chagasferns]

Beautiful video. Thanks for posting.

[@MarshSteamVideosTM]

Thanks, you're welcome.

[@deauvilledad07]

Excellent compilation, well done.

[@MarshSteamVideosTM]

Thanks Anthony, all the best.

[@Bruno.Trains]

Superb captures !!

[@cabbepe]

I would like to go to Britain to see them,. But, as it's a question of money, this will have to do. And it really does. It's fascinating that a construction from the twenties/thirties can match a modern train, at least on plain ground. And it also displays the nice british countryside. /Bertil, Sweden.

[@MarshSteamVideosTM]

Thanks for the comment Bertil.

[@robertjones-eb4xo]

Well done, brill editing !

[@callumnicolson9984]

Where are you when looking at Glenfinnan for the Jacobite shot? The only place you could be is on the monument itself?

[@MarshSteamVideosTM]

Just above the viewing area, which is situated across the road from the monument.

[@markcarey8426]

Py korry that is magniloquent!

[@260651]

Brilliant..

[@MarshSteamVideosTM]

Cheers David.

[@blameusa7082]

can anybody tell me why when you see the A3 and A4 they nearly always have a class 47 on the rear??

[@Xenogeek2]

3:39 You're scaring the sheep!

[@douglashodgson8379]

It certainly was a great year for steam, even if the network lost a legendary driver. (if I do say so myself) :)

[@TheStephengthompson]

Gordon will be sadly missed on the rails Douglas and I have many a video with his outstanding style of driving to thank him for .

[@MarshSteamVideosTM]

Definitely a much better year than the previous one Douglas. Hopefully your grandad is now enjoying retirement.

[@douglashodgson8379]

I've got him into airfix modelling to fill the time!

[@ZalMoxis]

I'd like to know the true age of the viaduct @24:24..... there's no way horse and buggy built that back in the day.... it was just repurposed imo....

[@farangtravels3956]

Excellent 👍

[@robertnicholson7192]

Don't be so zelfishBring them over here (US) where those of us who appreciate fine machinery and those who designed/built it can appreciate it, too.

[@zemesserschmitt8626]

is it just me or is there broad gauge track at 41:00 ?

[@electrohalo8798]

Ze Messerschmitt no it’s extra track we Brits store track That will be installed soon next to the track which will be replaced and will leave the old track next to its replacement until it is moved

[@ronnywirdananto]

Your video is very interesting, adding information for us May be able to take the time to visit our channel 😄 Nderek nyimak saking Purworejo Berirama [Bersih, Indah, Rapi, Aman, dan Makmur]
